    Dr. Young was wonderful, he really took the time to sit with us and talk to us about our daughter''s scoliosis and even took the time to specifically show how he measured things and went through the imaging very carefully. He provided reassuring information and you can tell he will really take as long as it needs to listen to and answer family''s questions and concerns. We could tell he is passionate about helping others and working with kid''s and their family''s. He was a breath of fresh air in the medical community.

    I'm a healthcare provider myself and I thought the visit was very helpful. Was great to have some professional/specialty input and also know that the PT was on the right track. Really appreciated that his recommendations were age appropriate and considered teenage behaviors.

    Dr. Young and his resident AJ were both so great. My son's appointment was at 9a and we got there a little early. Before we could even sit down in the waiting room, we were called back. AJ was wonderful and explained everything to my son about his arm and even gave him some advice for dealing with friends in school. Dr. Young came in shortly after. Was thorough, relatable and attentive. Overall, probably one of the best experiences we've had at any doctors office.

    I think Dr. Young is an extremely knowledgeable physician, but he seemed very rushed during our visit and did not ask if I had any questions, which was disappointing.
